Tet Slay Recover. A despatch from Orillia, Bark-- For some time back Mr. Thomas Whipps, an old and respected resident; of Oril~ lia, has been suffering from melan4 cholia, with a tendency to suicide. He gave up his farm on the outskirts at the town and came into town to live. A few weeks ago a new brick house he was erecting on the Culverley estate was totally destroyed by fire, and this seemed to increase Mr. Whipp's trou- ble. His friends have kept him pretty well under surveillance. and up to 'lhursday morning had succeeded in preventing any desperate act. He got up early, complaining of diarrhoea, and made two or three visits to the outhouse at the foot of the garden. During this time Mrs. Whipps had re- mained awake. but she finally dazed off, and was aroused by some one call- ing. A neighbour. Mr. Whiting, had heard moans, and on looking out of his window saw Mr, Whipps lying on the ground in a pool of blood. Dr. Gilchrist was summoned. and found that the throat had been out from ear to ear, and the windpipe severed completely, The patient had lost a great quantity of blood, and was very weak; at one time it being thought life was extinct. However. he rallied, and at the time of writing has a fair chance of recov- ery. The weapon used was an ordin- ary jackknife. “mun-u Etertrtet vn Brecht-s . Shock or [0.000 Torts tttrd " All".

A despatch from Rennes. says.--' Codiere. deputy chief of the intelugence department under Lleu1.-Col. Henry, who, since his previous appearance in court. had been, released by the Minis. tor of War, General de Marquis de Gallifet, fmm his oath of professional secrecy, was the first witness called on Tuesday. He testified to the effect. that the late Col. Sandherr. and not TRIAL OF GAPT. DREYFUS. 'IHE EVIDENCE SEEMS TO FAVOR THE NOTED PRISONER. Henry, received the famous bordereau. The colonel declared that his belief in the guilt of Dreyfus was first shaken when the date of the bordereau Was given as May, and, later. the witness declared stoutly that he was now con- vinced that Dreyfus was innocent. A WORD FOR COL. PICQUART. Col. Codiere then spoke up strongly for Col. Pioquart. as a conscientious sol- dier and an h inorable man, and threw light upon the situation which existed in the offices of the intelligence depart- tnunt of the War Office. He explained that Henry was Jealous of Pioquart he- muse the latter was given charge of the statistical sect ion, which Henry had hoped to get for himself. Codiere ex- pressed the belief that itt was because of Piequart that Henry committed his forgery. Dreyfus spake a few words at the con- cluii vn of Col. Corl/ere's statements. He a " i the seemx wh ch preceded his arrest was a.) fantastic that it had completely bewildered him, and merely left a blunted impression on his memory. The prisoner is now accustomed to his surroundings, and has apparently recovered his self-confidence. as he speaks readily and clearly and follows the witnesses closely, taking notes of various points of their depositions. SURPRISE FOR MAJOR LAUTH. Major Lauth first confronted Col. Cudiere, uni tried to svoxe against him by pointing out that Cola Codiere was incorrect in saying there were anti- Semites on the general staff, since to diere himself was one. The colonel re- turted. turning the tables on the Major, am raising his hands, hecriedr--"Uuite, true. 1 am an anti-Semi); but I never bore false witness against the Jew. I am an honest man." The audi- engengplsuded these remarks. Cul. Codicre then administered a well- deserved snub to Major Lnth, by m. marking that he, the Colonel, might be allowed to know more than Major Lauth with reference to the work of the intelligence department, iarm he, Ch lonvl Codiere, replaced Col. Sandherr aschiet of the department whenever Sun-.lherr Was absent; while Major Lamb. the witness concluded. "was merely my asaistunt. My assistant, mark you." MajJr Lauth did not enjoy this little scene at all. General Roget next confronted Colo.. nel Codiere. The General assumed the same supercilious air which character- ized him when he appeared at the wit- ness bar, strutting about the! stage in disdainful attitudes. His evidence, however, was nor very striking, nor was that of Col. Fleur, or M. Gribelin, ar- chivist, who also contested minor points of Col. Codiere‘s deposition. Finally, General Mercier, who evi- dently confronted the witness in order to demonstrate the batuslessness of the stories of his intentions to fly, and to show his determimition to fight to the last, coniro'nted Col. Codiere. The Gen- ernl's remarks were of small import- ance the most interesting being his repetition of Col. Sandherr's opinion of Mathieu Dreyfus, when the prisoner's brother went to see the colonel, to ask for justice in behalf of Captain Drey- tus, M/yyder_atimjttts4 Sandherr said: -"Mathiea bidy%i%i'iriiiiiiii; me iii an honest man, who was prepared to make any sacrifice to save his bro- ther." M. de Freycinet, the former Minister of War, former Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Premier, followed Col. Codiere on the witness stand. The court room was packed to its utmost capacity, as the distinguished French statesman began Isis deposition. The former minister is a venerrrbie-'1ooking man, with scanty snow-white hair and moustache, and was dressed in a blue serge suit. M. de Freycinet began by expressing the pain which he expen- ienoed at the trouble hie country was undergoing, and, later, he said he re- membered a conversation with Gener.. al Jamont, at which there was a re- ference to money coming from abroad in support of the Dreyfus agitation, "which, while disinterested in France, might not be so wbroad." The states- man. however, did not remember the details of the conversation, nor could he any it an amount was mentioned. M. de Freyclnet then alluded to his [ears that "attacks on the chiefs of the army might be prejudicial to discipline," adding, "Might not these attacks lead to the disappearance of discipline. and what would be the result if we found ourselves in difficulties with another country t" In short. M. de Freycinet delivered a patriotic speech, rather than a 1trtf,lot concluding with the, words: "A l the world will accept your verdict. which will open an era of Tth. conciliation." Col. Jouaust declined to put to the witness some questions put by M. Ln- Lori, declaring that they had no direct bearing on .the case. IN FAVOR. OF DREYFUS. The evidence of the MM. Meyer, Mo- linier, and Giery, all of whom are handwriting experts, of the first rank, was a strong point for Dreyfus. They were most emphatic in declaring the bordereau wan written by Esterhazy, and created a better impression than M. Bertillon, by not introducing the fantastic diagrams which the latter darned awry. --- 7 The action at Gen. Mercia: in asking to be allowed to reply to M.

On the other hand, that), pertains think Gen. Mer- cier, fearing that Saturday‘s exposure will discredit han altogether with the judges, has concerted the idea of giving way on certain points, which, more- over, are almost incontestable. and thus to some extent reinstate himself by an attectation of impartiality. M. Picot related an interesting mn- versation which he had with the Aus- tro~Hungerinn military attache. Col. Schneider, mention of whose name evoked a prompt protest from Major Carriers in the name of the Govern- ment and State. Col. Schneider, ac- mrdiu'g to this witrttsna, admitted that Esterhazy acted as I. any, and wrote the bordereau.

Gen. Roget, with his usual shrewd- mass, seized upon M. Picot‘s statement that Col.

Noble-an Condemned for Murder " Found In be Innocent. A deepatch from Moscow ssayts:-'rlre Government on Tuesday ordered the release from the penal colony of Sagina- lion, of a young nobleman, Alexander Talma, who was condemned in 1895 for the alleged. murder and robbery of his aunt, the miserable widow of Gen. Boldyreti, and the burning of her house to hide the crime. A brass-smith named Karpotf, having been arrested the other day for another crime, eon- fessed that! he had robbed and murder- ed the woman. The story was corrobor- ated byl the finding in the lining of his coat of 1,000 railway shares registered in tho name of Gen. Boldyreft. Karpoft will soon be brought to trial and Talma is to be returned immediately to his and Car mostted IIIIo end Overturned In: I’Ire-angon.
